HELPFUL WORDS
From an Alliance citizen.
It- your back lame and painful?
l)oes It ache especially after exer
tion? Is there a soreness in the kidney
region?
These symptoms suggest weak kid
neys. If bo there is danger in delay.
Weak kidneys get fast weaker.
Give your trouble prompt atten
tion. Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak
kidneys.
Your neighbors use and recom
mend them.
Read this Alliance testimony.
Mrs. D. W. Ray, 414 Niobrara ave
nue, says: "Several years ago I was
suffering from a steady, wearing
ache in my back and I was in a run
down condition. I felt tired and
nervous, too. Doan's Kidney Pills
gave me fine relief. I have seen so
much proof of their value that I
recommend them as a good kidney
medicine."

Sunday, October 2 7, has been des
ignated for the restoration of our
former time, alter nearly seven
months of guidance by the ' Daylight
Raving Plan" with our timepieces ad
vanced one hour. The plan has
proved successful and unless repeal
ed by an act of congress will In the
future be an annual event. Clocks
will be advanced one hour April 1st
and retarded the san;e in October.
To the most of our people the
change will be bin a matter or course
and will attract no more than pass
ing notice. They will adjust them
selves to the conditions without ma
terial realisation of Hie ctiance. The
railroads and telegraph companies
wfll. however, be more forcibly re
minded. It will mean a re-adjustment
of train schedules and of the
Western Union clock over the entire
country, necessitating considerable
expense and attention. Detailed In
struction will be furnished those with
the company clocks as to tne proced
ure necessary to right the time and
where necessary aid will be given.
That longed-for additional hour
for peaceful repose among the feath
ers is at last at hand, but It will also
mean working an hour later. If you
would keep apace wKh Father Time
remember that your timepiece should
be stowed one hour Sunday.

ernment, Wrigley's will discontinue
the use of tin-foil as a wrapping for
"Juicy Fruit" chewing gum, in order
to release this valuable material to
Uncle Sam.
